French President Francois Hollande to be chief guest for 2016 Republic Day celebrations
Remember the 2015 Republic Day celebrations in New Delhi that had US President Barack Obama as the chief guest alongside Narendra Modi and Prime Minister Pranab Mukherjee? Worry not, 2016 will have an international guest as well - French President Francois Hollande.
According to news reports, French President Francois Hollande is going to be the chief guest at the 67th Republic Day ceremony on 26 January next year.
Some reports have, meanwhile, suggested that apart from Hollande, UK Prime Minister David Cameron and Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy Brey were among global leaders considered to be invited as the chief guest for the 2016 Republic Day celebrations.
Hollande's France is reeling under the worst attacks on its soil since World War II after Islamic State terrorists killed 129 people in co-ordinated attacks in Paris on last Friday.
